affordable housing needs, issues, policies, and regulations; to work with the City and other
groups to formulate programs and projects for meeting Bozeman's affordable housing needs; and
to advise the Commission on affordable housing plans for annexations and any related
development proposals.
Recently, CAHAB has been involved in affordable housing discussions with the City
Commission and reviewing a request for proposals for an affordable housing study.

on June 30 of each year; and a member of City Planning staff shall serve as an ex- officio, non-
